Hi, I will try to be clear this time. I now have Windows 7 with IE 8. On my disk, there is an .avi file. I convert it to dvd using Cyberlink Power2Go. Then I burn the file. Everything is good up to that step. The file plays well on my disk. Picture and sound ok. But when I insert it in a dvd player, I see the picture on the tv but there is no sound. Tried ConvertXtoDVD with no luck. Somebody told me I need some codecs but did not mention which ones. On my old system, winxp, I had no problem. Could somebody help me please. Thank you. Syrius

When I had WindowsXP SP-2, I never had that problem. I used to convert any downloaded film, burn and play with the dvd player. Thank you.

Hi Trev, It's not a codec problem, since the avi file plays on his computer. Instead, it's a file conversion problem. During the conversion from the avi container to the DVD-compliant Mpeg2 format, the audio needs to be changed to something like AC3 or PCM. AC3 is universally supported by standalone DVD players and is a compact (size-wise) audio format, so I recommend that one. The file converter should have taken care of this automatically, but I'm guessing an option was missed somewhere prior to starting the conversion.

When I selected the avi file, I saw another window with " Burn " at the bottom. I did not see any option giving me the opportunity to choose another function. I did not have this problem with Nero on WinXP. It does the same thing with ConvertXtoDVD. No sound when using the dvd player. Syrius

Someone else already posted the links to GSpot and avi-codec so I assume you know by now what you're dealing with.
